HarperCollins is proud to present its new range of best-loved, essential classics. 'I want -- I want somehow to get away with you into a world where words like that -- categories like that -- won't exist. Where we shall be simply two human beings who love each other, who are the whole of life to each other; and nothing else on earth will matter.' Newland Archer, a successful and charming young lawyer conducts himself by the rules and standards of the polite, upper class New York society that he resides in. Happily engaged to the pretty and conventional May Welland, his attachment guarantees his place in this rigid world of the elite. However, the arrival of May's cousin, the exotic and beautiful European Countess Olenska throws Newland's life upside down. A divorcee, Olenska is ostracised by those around her, yet Newland is fiercely drawn to her wit, determination and willingness to flout convention. With the Countess, Newland is freed from the limitations that surround him and truly begins to 'feel' for the first time. Wharton's subtle expose of the manners and etiquette of 1870s New York society is both comedic, subtle, satirical and cynical in style and paints an evocative picture of a man torn between his passion and his obligation.
亦舒有部小說和這個故事情節一模一樣!!!!女的已經訂婚,美麗又桀驁不馴的落魄的妹妹齣現,女的未婚夫幾經搖擺,還是遵守承諾結瞭婚。最後,還是離婚瞭。
評分語言精煉但用詞復雜,所以看起來還是挺費時的。看完第一部,情緒渲染很到位啊。尤其最後的錶白和反轉。從男主的角度看傻白甜和傻白甜一傢各種不屑和鄙視,有沒有可能是他們更偏嚮理智而非情感。打破規矩的人是否自私?而說墨守成規沒有人性,是不是藉口?佩服may的自持力,雖然以男主視角寫作,理解他的心理活動,但仍然免不得覺得他渣。不過最後一章真的看哭瞭,人生中那些得不到的東西,妥協,理解,自我鄙視與安慰,看瞭之後很難過
評分Second book killed it for me. I appreciate the building up of the sexual tension in the first book, yet the second one drags egregiously. The resolution does not justify itself. What bathos. The time lapse felt soulless and vapid. Anticlimactic as hell
